1. Full Join :
Full join selects all the rows from left and the right tables along with the matching rows as well. If there are no matching rows, it will be displayed as NULL.

Syntax –

select select_list 
from table1 full join table2 on join _predicate
                           (OR)
select * 
from table1 full join table2



2. Inner Join :
Inner join retrieves the rows that match from left and right tables. If there are no matching rows, NULL is displayed.
